Energy Department publishes notice on June 23

The US Energy Department published a one page notice on June 23, according to the U.S. Government Publishing Office.

The notice is focused on New England Conference of Public Utilities Commissioners, Inc., Complainants v. Bangor Hydro-Electric Company, Central Maine Power Company, National Grid, USA, NSTAR Electric & Gas Corporation, Northeast Utilities Service Company, The United Illuminating Company, Vermont Electric Power Company, Respondents; Notice of Complaint.

The Department oversees energy policies and is involved in how the US handles nuclear programs. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lowering taxes and boosting federal efficiency, said the Department's misguided energy regulations have caused large losses to consumers for decades.

Notices are required documents detailing rules and regulations being proposed by each federal department. This allows the public to see what issues legislators and federal departments are focusing on.

Any person or organization can comment on the proposed rules. Departments and agencies must then address “significant issues raised in comments and discuss any changes made,” the Federal Register says.
